I would have rated a 5, but...........,
By A Customer
This review is from: Five Points of Calvinism: (Paperback)
I would have rated this gem a 5. It is probably one of the bestprimers on the Doctrines of Grace and cites many sources for further study. The only glaring problem was a silly little anachronism in the book which calls those who believed in the Doctrines of Grace before Calvin, "Calvinists". That is also the problem I have using the nickname 'Calvinist' as those doctrines are as ancient as God's counsel. Affixing a time for their introduction is problematic. They are not Augustinian or Calvinist doctrines, but the Doctrine of the Triune God in Salvation. Dr. Norman Geisler and Dave Hunt need to curl up with this book and learn some biblical truth about who they are and who God is.

An excellent restating of the Gospel,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Five Points of Calvinism: Defined, Defended, and Documented (Paperback)
I was an Arminian for most of my adult life, but over the last year became, to paraphrase Lewis "The most reluctant Calvinist in all of Christendom!" This book has really helped me solidify my position. I'm a licensed minister who's been forced to totally rethink his theology. The plenary, infallible inspiration of the Scriptures clearly demands a God who is Sovereign over the will of man. It's all spelled out clearly in this very readable book.Sola Scriptura!

40th Anniversary Edition is AMAZING!!!,
By kerry195 "KG" (Theologically Correct dot Com) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Five Points of Calvinism: Defined, Defended, and Documented (Paperback)
I can't say enough about the 40th anniversary edition (2nd Edition) of this book. Revised and HUGELY expanded from it's small booklet form to over 200 pages, including solid exegesis of difficult passages, discussions on things like preservation and perseverance, and soooo many more things I cannot even mention here, make this book a WELCOME addition to anyone's library. Most of the reviews on here (pre-2004) point to the old edition of this book. It's really cool that Roger Nicole again did the foreword to the new edition, with John MacArthur doing the afterword and a host of other folks with additional articles..... oh just go pick it up!! The appendices alone are worth the price of the book.
